Naa Sidewinder 22lr/22wmr 4" 5rd Sts

The North American Arms Sidewinder 22LR/22WMR with 4-inch barrel is a single-action revolver engineered for shooters who demand reliability in a compact, versatile platform. Built from stainless steel with wood grips and fixed sights, the Sidewinder Combo delivers dual-caliber capability—switching between .22 Long Rifle and .22 Winchester Magnum Rimfire—without changing firearms. The 5-round capacity and 4-inch barrel length position this revolver as an effective tool for small-game hunting, target practice, and training applications where low recoil and cost-effective ammunition are priorities.

The stainless steel construction provides corrosion resistance suitable for extended field use and adverse weather exposure. The single-action trigger mechanism requires manual cocking for each shot, a characteristic that appeals to precision-focused shooters and those who value controlled trigger breaks during deliberate fire. Fixed sights eliminate battery dependencies and complex adjustments, keeping the platform simple and field-expedient. At 2.94 pounds and measuring 7 x 2.55 x 10.15 inches, the Sidewinder maintains a compact profile while delivering a usable sight radius from the 4-inch barrel.

This revolver serves hunters, sport shooters, and training professionals who leverage rimfire ammunition for extended practice sessions without significant expense. The .22 WMR option provides moderately increased velocity and energy compared to standard .22 LR, supporting a wider range of applications from varmint control to small-game harvesting. The combo capability—carrying two calibers in a single firearm—streamlines logistics for range days and field operations where versatility reduces equipment burden.

North American Arms Sidewinder revolvers occupy a specialized niche in the rimfire market, preferred by shooters seeking traditional single-action ergonomics paired with modern stainless construction. The fixed-sight design and compact form factor prioritize reliability and simplicity over tactical modularity, making this platform a straightforward choice for those who approach marksmanship fundamentals without complexity.
